“Chris and Erica were very professional. They provided photos and updates at every visit. I was unexpectedly also listing my house and had potential buyers stopping by while I was gone They pivoted expectations easily and did not mind adding a few extra request last minute. I would recommend them to my friends.”

“Alejandra was amazing with our cats and was also kind enough to bring in packages from outside and help us with another favor! She also always sent great pictures of our cats! Highly recommended to anyone looking for someone to look after their pets.”

About: Much like Romulus and Remus, I was raised with/by dogs growing up! I absolutely love dogs! Big dogs, lil dogs, fluffy dogs, energetic dogs, old dogs all dogs are great. I am currently without my 5 year old black lab for the next 6 months and want to get pets and walks to make up for the lost time with my pupperonni! My dogs name is Wanda, she is great but a ball of energy (like most labs). I have had her since she was a puppy and she is crate trained, house trained and just a very good girl! She is the light and soul of my life (dont tell my GF) ! I am trying to be healthy and would love to have a dog to walk with when I explore Sumter! I am shift work but will balance my schedule accordingly to walk dogs or let them out when required. I mostly work night shift allowing me to have the flexibility during the day to get out for walks and stay active! I am a 30 year old guy with no kids. My dog is my kid. My daily routine I had with Wanda was to let out every morning and play fetch with her or walk her. I would then bring her inside to calm down, I’d shower and then go back downstairs to feed her since she’s caught her breathe and cooled off by then. After she’s eaten I would let her out potty again and then she is chill for the day until evening time where I would bring her out on another walk or a swim at my cottage at home which I’m dearly missing and then when she has calmed down from that I would feed her dinner. Most nights I try to do 10ish mins of training with her and she loves the treats anyways so it’s very easy. She knows sit, stay (for a long time and a big distance), paw (both), she can spin, she can do a tunnel (go between my legs) and she can spin around me and sit on my left or right side! I will admit she is a lab and very food driven/motivated so training her was relatively easy with the right treats. She is the best and I miss my dog and want to be able to play with other people’s dogs!
“Shannon always takes great care of our kitties! She is very attentive to their needs and making sure they feel extra love when we are gone. Thank you Shannon!”

“Whitney took such good care of our cat while we were gone. She was very thorough with her care and provided us updates and photos daily. We will certainly be using her again and would recommend her to anyone looking for drop in care. :)”


About: I loved working on ranches and dog sitting throughout my highschool and college time. I have always enjoyed getting out with the animals to make sure they are feeling energized! I have a fairly flexible schedule at this time. I would be able to let the dogs out or take them on a walk early afternoon. I’m able to take the dogs out on walks fairly often if I am living near. I also would be able to crate the puppy easily and take them on walks throughout the day.
“Sarah is great with my high energy dogs! It’s hard for me to find care for them because one of my dogs is scared of strangers, but Sarah made her feel comfortable and relaxed. Very thankful and looking forward to future appointments!”

“Amanda was great to our 2 kitties! She sent so many pictures and updates. Even our shy kitty came out to get attention and love from her. We will definitely be asking her to watch them again in the future! Thanks for being such a trustworthy, great sitter! 😊”

About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m also a proud dog mom to three four-legged family members of my own, so I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I have experience raising and caring for puppies and understand the extra patience, supervision, consistency, frequent potty breaks, and attention they need. I also have experience with dog training and have personally trained two service dogs, which has given me experience with positive reinforcement, routines, basic obedience, leash manners, and different dog behaviors. I’m comfortable caring for energetic puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs who may need a slower pace and some extra attention. Most importantly, I treat every dog in my care like family and want owners to feel comfortable knowing their pup is safe, happy, loved, and well cared for while they’re away. Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday routine since I have three four-legged family members of my own. I’m used to planning my day around feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention. My schedule allows me to make time for pet sitting, drop-in visits, and walks throughout the week. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I follow your instructions and routines closely and treat every pet like my own. I’m respectful of your home, attentive during walks and playtime, and happy to provide pictures and updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for.
About: I truly focus on keeping pets comfortable by caring for them right in their own home, where they feel safest and most relaxed. I have a flexible part-time schedule, so I can give your pets plenty of attention and stick closely to their routines. I’m patient, confident, and experienced with a variety of temperaments—from playful puppies to shy or anxious dogs. My own dog is well-behaved, which has helped me learn how to reinforce good manners and calmly handle different situations. I treat every pet like they’re my own and pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and fully committed to giving your pets the best possible care. Because I work part-time, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to focus on your pets throughout the day. I’m available most afternoons and evenings during the week, along with full availability on weekends for boarding or drop-ins. Your pet’s routine will always be my priority. I have one well-behaved dog at home, but most of the care I provide will be in your home so your pets can stay in their familiar environment. I always follow your instructions for feeding, routines, and house rules, and I take the time to make sure each pet feels safe and relaxed. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family.
“Amanda has watched my cat on two separate occasions now. She’s a great sitter who obviously cares a lot and has a lot of experience with animals. My kitty always seems happy and well taken care of. She’s quickly becoming my go to sitter!”

About: I’ve always grown up in a home where pets were part of the family. Dogs, especially, have been a constant in my life, and I truly believe they’re some of the most loyal and loving companions we could ask for. Over the years, I’ve cared for my own dogs, dog-sat for friends and family, and had the unique experience of caring for working dog teams while living in Alaska. These experiences have taught me that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs—and I love getting to know them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have experience caring for senior dogs and administering oral medications, and I’m comfortable following specific care instructions and maintaining your pet’s normal routine while you’re away. My goal is simple: to care for your pets with the same patience, attention, and affection I would want for my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I’ll do everything I can to give you peace of mind while they’re with me. 🐶❤️ I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable, attentive care throughout the week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, exercise, and care while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like family and keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while they’re in my care. I currently work from home, so I'm available whenever your dog needs or wants to go outside! I don't currently have any dog toys for your pup to play with, but if you would like to bring their own, I would love to play with them! Feel free to bring whatever you think your dog might need throughout their stay.
“Kayla was an excellent caretaker for our dog. She did drop-in visits because our dog is happiest at home. Kayla came just as we agreed and always took care of our dog, and played with him. She updated us with photos and was available to speak about any questions we had. We also had an unexpected delay in getting home and Kayla was gracious to extend our booking and continue looking after our dog for an extra day. I highly recommend her!”

“Michael, is an amazing dog sitter. He kept me informed on how the dogs were doing each time he dropped by. He sent me videos and photos of my “puppies.” My dogs instantly liked him and thoroughly enjoyed his company. I would highly recommend him to take care of your pets and I will be using him again.”

We absolutely love Kim's kindness to our dogs! Our Malinois adapted quickly with her! We always been hesitant about anyone watching him but family. Tatanka usually shows quickly if he's not happy. He was full of wags and vocal to meet her. Hoonah is just a happy to see her too. We will be using Kim again! Thank you for the pictures and updates! Kim even told us if needed to extend our time due to traffic on the highway just let her know!

Logan is absolutely wonderful. She did a fantastic job with our pack! Leaving our dogs with Logan and knowing they would be well cared for allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying if the dogs were OK. Logan is professional, showed up during the time frame she said she would and communicated with me by text and photos after each visit. Logan is highly recommended!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Eagle River stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Eagle River choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Eagle River with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
